Your apparent ease at labeling bashers does not make them bashers.

Calling me a tree does not make me grow roots.

[BlackElk]

Well, no, what you are called does not make it so. What makes it so is the reality of your conduct.

Calling me a tree does not make me grow roots.

Thank you. When BlackElk's friends are confronted with reason and logic and a good grasp of the Bible and church history, they call BlackElk in to (a) bellow that any non-Catholic who disputes a Catholic teaching is a Catholic-basher; and (b) bellow that any Catholic who disputes a Catholic teaching liberal bent on destroying the Catholic church from within.

Neither of the two types of bellowing is very convincing to a rational person but his friends are very impressed.
